the power men enjoy make women available for artistic experimentation and colonization. in many ways, modern art rejected the humanist traditions of western art, but it never abandoned the female nude. instead, it used women's bodies for its most extreme innovations and fantasies. on their bodies, the implication of distanced creation is there for all to see. there is no such thing as objective art history. there are only the interpretations of art historians. these artists' work has been assessed in different ways. from courbet's country peasants to manet's new classes in the cities, from monet's realism of light to the visions of van gogh, the painters we've looked at seem to progressively move away from the real world, rejecting external appearances in favor of an inner, personal, imaginative truth. what we have seen is a crisis about how to handle the modern in its immediate form of the city. the importance of the artists of the 1880s and 1890s is a kind of hinge. artists still felt themselves responsible to the world-- its social, as well as its natural, orders. the

in science, there is experimentation.xperimentation, nine times out of 10, 99 times out of 100, the experiment fails. but you do that. it is part of the process. you learn from it, you think about it, you try it again. in hollywood, you sort of feel like not only is there no net, there are probably poisoned spikes down there. so you're going to do something, i know i can land, right? at pixar, not only is there a net, but it is full of down pillows and big comforters and all that stuff. so failure is part of the process. try something, figure it out. >> "toy story" was the first experiment pixar figured out. others such as "finding nemo," "cars," and "wall-e" followed. each pixar movie takes about four years to make, a painstaking, often difficult process. >> every pixar film at one point in time or another has been the worst film ever. just because it is a process. we're creating this film and we watch the movie every three to four months in the internal screening of our story reels and we give notes. >> that was somethi

the other plot is something that is the experimental plot. call it the ipm plot. and even there we don't tell them what to do, but we sort of suggest, "well, let's try not using pesticides and see what happens." and since no one person is invested in the outcome -- it's a group plot of land that we are supporting -- there's no risk associated with it. dr. kenmore: and they start by looking at the crop, looking at the size and quality of the plants, and then by looking at the different kinds of insects and fungi that are observed, bringing samples back, and then each working group giving a mini seminar to the whole field school on what ey observed in the field. narrator: although similar to kenmore's findings, the farmers' results often surprise them. in untreated fields, herbivores that ate rice plants were kept under control by natural predators. but in fields where pesticides were used, plant-eating herbivores grew at tremendous rates, since the populations of their natural predators were greatly reduced by the pesticides. dr. kenmore: why farmers doing experime

and in the future once we get bigger and once we move out of the experimental phase i would like to change that and have a way for people to be able to disclose their background and we don't want to exclude anybody because of past mistakes. today you get to know that every provider that you find on it hasn't been convicted of anything in the process. we have a frequently asked question section. where you can, as the title implies you can ask common questions. essentially the most important thing to understand about our service in how we view ourselves is we are not a service provider, we are a market provider. our goal is to help provide a place for both our graduates of our program and for folks who are looking for them to be able to access them easily and help make decisions. we don't tell you who you should pick. we don't tell you why you should pick anybody. we don't promote anybody over anybody else in the process of it. so the relationship that you have is directly with the provider that you are selecting. so the only thing to see what do you do once you sign into to the beta and wha

if there is that experimentation or sometimes it's just following a prescription with a painkiller so these are really powerful opioids. there isn't -- there's a strong likelihood that once one goes down that road they are a diction is kind of a given in many situations so if the pills aren't available and become higher and higher priced to get and that gets harder and harder than the cheaper route is to go to the heroin and that is what i tried to bring out of my story. that it's not that people are necessarily actively seeking out heroin. it becomes just the easier route to go to after the pills aren't available and there's a dependency on them. >> host: another thing you point out in your story is the heroin of today is a lot purer and it's pretty accessible and cheap. >> guest: exactly. and that has been leading to a lot of as many would say the problems of the overdose too because years ago police officer said years ago the kind of heroin that they would be finding in their arrests or whatever would be two or 3% at now it's up to 80%. that means that people -- and new audience no

number of stakeholder meets to best understand transportation concerned and challenges from the experimental prospective from folks on the ground. we began to look at the pipeline if you're familiar with that in the city they look at the 20040 of what they're anticipating in terms of housing and rods and jobs so we created a transportation pipeline to go next to that. we wanted to ask are the transportation projects we know are com in time for the demonstrate we anticipate that's an important question and it's been largely effective in helping us to develop the strategies. the strategies with the goals identified the stakeholders input and the understanding of what those future gaps exist we developed this long i think we have about one hundred and thirty if you've seen the draft assessment plan that was published last july you would be able to look at the list on the back of that plan. so that was the end of phase one and we're in phase two. phase one wrapped up at the end of last year and -- excuse-me.. so fast one was identification of goals and strategies and phase two as diane mentioned
